A SkinMedica® proprietary ingredient for sustained release of HA
For immediate hydration
For smoothness and hydration
Soothes skin
Provides long-lasting hydration for up to 8 hours
Apply twice daily—in the morning and at night—after cleansing, toning, and treating your skin. Apply before you moisturize and apply SPF (sun protection).
Apply to face, neck and décolleté, or any area where fine lines and wrinkles primarily exist.
Because HA5 TM is a "water-loving" substance, wet your fingertips prior to applying HA5 TM to your skin.
A moisturizer is a cosmetic cream or lotion made with humectants or occlusive or a combination of both that prevent skin dryness. A hydrator is a cosmetic treatment product that promotes epidermal health by supporting the skin’s natural ability to replenish HA.
Yes, HA5 TM is oil free and fragrance free, and is appropriate for all skin types. HA5 TM is considered non-comedogenic.
No. HA5 TM contains whey protein that is derived from milk powder. Therefore, a person with a history of milk or whey protein allergy that triggers an immune response should not use this product because they may experience an allergic reaction.
HA5 TM Rejuvenating Hydrator can be used with any SkinMedica® product or regimen to support hydration. It should be applied immediately before moisturizer in a normal regimen.
HA5 TM Rejuvenating Hydrator addresses the loss of HA in the skin. Its combination of 5 HAs works immediately to smooth the skin and provide hydration throughout the day on the outer most layers of the skin. In addition, HA5 TM supports the skin's own ability to retain hydration with VITISENSCE® proprietary technology, a potent or "top" blend of antioxidants and peptides.
TNS Essential Serum® addresses skin rejuvenation in the deeper layers of the skin to improve the appearance of skin. Both products include powerful antioxidants, but the blends are very different and are designed to work in different ways to support the skin. We recommend people use HA5 TM Rejuvenating Hydrator with TNS Essential Serum® in their skin care regimen.
Dry skin is a skin type, while dehydration is a skin condition. In both, the skin undergoes transepidermal water loss, or evaporation of water from inside the body. With this water loss, the enzymes that normally help the skin shed cells cannot function properly, resulting in a buildup of cells that makes the skin look rough and dry, contributing to the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Dry skin can be genetic or a symptom of systemic disease. It is caused either by the inadequate production of oil, called sebum, or by an imbalance of fatty acids, ceramide, and cholesterol in the stratum corneum, the barrier layer of the skin. Age is also a factor in dry skin. As we get older, we experience a decline in a main hormone that triggers sebum production.
Dehydrated skin still produces sebum but is temporarily dry because of various factors, including environmental effects such as a dry climate or use of harsh detergents or products on the skin. It is caused by a temporary imbalance of fatty acids and ceramides in the skin's barrier layer, resulting in a temporary spike in transepidermal water loss.

"Many patients are surprised to learn there's a difference between moisturization and hydration—moisturization is the process of skin feeling hydrated, while hydration increases the water level in skin, and it's the addition of water that helps to combat signs of aging. The combination of the instant and long-term benefits sets SkinMedica® HA5 TM Rejuvenating Hydrator apart from other HA products on the market, as it's rare to find a topical skin care treatment that delivers immediate smoothing results that patients can see, as well as support skin health for enhanced results overtime."
